ArticlesEternity for Men - An
Old Favorite At Amazon.com it is a perennial best seller, and, as of this writing, there were more than 20 customer reviews, most of them favorable. Here is one: Eternity is the only fragrance that I use, a practice that I have done for over seven years. It has a subtle, never overpowering scent, assuring me that I will make just the right "impression". What else does one want from a cologne? And another: This cologne is another almost perfect male fragrance. The term that comes to mind in this case is "EQ". It just has a perfect range of scents that are very well balanced between bass, mids, and high notes. It is not too citrusy like many other colognes that I happen to like, it is more serious and definitively male. Comparatively it is a more serious version of TOMMY, more sex-scent oriented than HUGO, and has a broad spicy mid-range. Being that it doesn't have an over-amount of top notes that never make it to your skin, this cologne is dependable to smell like it did when you put it on hours later. A woman who calls herself "I'm Obsessed" writes: I swear, I think I could smell this cologne from across a crowded room. Not because it is too strong, but because it is by FAR the best 'man' scent I've ever smelled. And, after shopping for hours for the perfect cologne for my ex, I feel like I KNOW that this is the best cologne out there (although Kenneth Cole's line is also very good). I'm a chick. I'm obsessed with Eternity. This is a scent that will transcend other trendy colognes, because it smells completely classic, classy, and screams "I'm sexy!" Need I say more? And a lengthy review: I have been using Calvin Klein's Eternity for Men since it appeared back in 1989. I had previously used Calvin and Obsession for Men from CK, but I found a certain distinctive appeal to the clean, fresh scent of Eternity that is never overpowering or intrusive. What I especially like about it is its staying power...many colognes or EDTs lose their "charm" later in the day after application. Of course, the aroma of Eternity weakens in strength on the body from its initial spray, but even its mellowed state is recognizable. Fragrance "layering" using Eternity's Body Moisturizer and Body Powder adds to the experience. There's something to be said about finding a fragrance that works with one's body chemistry, and I know that Eternity is the one for me. The "greens, crisp jasmine, sage, and basil" notes do make a difference, and that is why it continues to be a top CK seller even now in the highly competitive and crowded fragrance market.
